Nuálach Cé go bhfuil Comhoibriú ann
Tá an Roinn Seirbhísí Oiliúna laistigh de KWETB an-rathúil maidir le maoiniú a fháil ó Chiste Nuálaíochta Trí Chomhoibriú SOLAS.
Is tionscnamh maoinithe é seo ó SOLAS , an ghníomhaireacht stáit atá freagrach as Breisoideachas agus Oiliúint (FET) in Éirinn.
Spreagann na tionscadail seo nuálaíocht agus feabhsuithe sa tionscal, agus tá siad ailínithe le tosaíochtaí náisiúnta maidir le hardú scileanna, athoiliúint, foghlaim ar feadh an tsaoil agus forbairt an lucht saothair.
Cuireann tionscadail nuálaíochta oiliúint ar fáil a théann i ngleic le héilimh scileanna atá ag teacht chun cinn in earnálacha ar nós fuinneamh glas, teicneolaíocht nó cúram sláinte.
KWETB’s Head of Innovation and Training Eileen Cullen with Minister for Further and Higher Education, Research, Innovation and Science James Lawless and Victor Biffi Rosano, Business Director at Kildare Village.
This first-of-its-kind certification marks a major milestone for the Irish retail sector, offering formal recognition of in-house training and on-the-job learning for retail employees. With over 500 staff set to receive digital skills badges in 2025, this programme sets a new standard for workforce development in Ireland.
We were delighted to be joined by Minister James Lawless, Mark Wall TD, Senator Fiona O’Loughlin, Mary Lyons (Director of Enterprise, Employees and Skills, SOLAS) and Siobhan Keogh (Regional Skills Forum Manager) in celebrating this fantastic achievement and with the sun shining, it truly was a great day for County Kildare and for an education and training collaboration.
As Eileen Cullen, KWETB’s Head of Innovation and Training, said,“We are proud and excited to have collaborated with Kildare Village on this innovative programme. It showcases how strong partnerships between education and industry — supported by key stakeholders like Kildare County Council — can deliver real value to learners, employers, and communities alike. This collaboration is about thinking differently to recognise on-the-job learning and skills development, and, more importantly, making those skills visible and valued.”
This initiative is a powerful example of how KWETB is leading the way in developing innovative, real-world training solutions that respond to both industry needs and lifelong learning goals. It’s not just a programme, it’s a blueprint for how we can continue to invest in people, progress, and the future of work.
